Crosspring

Crosspring is an early-stage investment firm that backs pre-seed and seed-stage B2B software companies in Europe and North America. Alongside its direct investments, the firm allocates capital to venture capital and private equity funds, with a stated focus on Eastern Europe and North America. Its areas of work span B2B SaaS, venture capital, private equity and startup equity structuring.

The firm's direct activity is concentrated at the (pre)seed stage, where it supports founders in accelerating the growth of innovative businesses. Its investment remit sits within a broader engagement with the entrepreneurship ecosystem: Crosspring partners with companies, governments, universities and other institutions, and supports entrepreneurship and early-stage investment initiatives at regional and global levels.

Two published initiatives reflect that wider remit. Founders Matrix is a framework designed to help startup founders assess contributions and structure equity discussions around time commitment, assets and financial investment. Crosspring also facilitates a version of Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs, a programme supporting entrepreneurship and early-stage investment initiatives. The emphasis on fair equity structuring at the (pre)seed stage is a recurring theme in the firm's stated focus on founder support.
